GNMT Gene Glycine N-methyltransferase deficiency Genetic Test
At DNA Labs UAE, we offer the GNMT Gene Glycine N-methyltransferase deficiency Genetic Test to diagnose and provide information about this rare genetic disorder.
Test Details
GNMT (Glycine N-methyltransferase) is an enzyme that plays a role in the breakdown of glycine, an amino acid. GNMT deficiency is a rare genetic disorder that affects the function of this enzyme.
A NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic test is used to identify genetic variations, including mutations, in the GNMT gene that may be responsible for GNMT deficiency. This test uses high-throughput sequencing technologies to analyze multiple genes simultaneously.

Pre Test Information
A Genetic Counselling session is recommended before undergoing the GNMT Gene Glycine N-methyltransferase deficiency NGS Genetic DNA Test. This session helps draw a pedigree chart of family members affected with GNMT deficiency and provides valuable clinical history of the patient.
Test Process
The GNMT Gene Glycine N-methyltransferase deficiency Genetic Test involves obtaining a DNA sample, usually through a blood sample or a cheek swab. The DNA is then sequenced using NGS technology to identify any genetic variations in the GNMT gene.
Who Should Consider the Test?
Genetic testing for GNMT deficiency can be useful for individuals who have symptoms of the disorder or a family history of the condition. It can also be used for carrier testing, prenatal testing, or preimplantation genetic diagnosis for couples at risk of having a child with GNMT deficiency.
It’s important to note that genetic testing for GNMT deficiency should be done under the guidance of a healthcare professional or a genetic counselor who can help interpret the results and provide appropriate counseling and support.
